About This Property

Behind a secret bookcase in this stunning smart home there's a hidden wine room - and that's just the beginning. This is the kind of home where every detail has intention. Walk in and the heated tile entry sets the tone. Voice commands run the lights and blinds throughout. The stove preheats from your phone on the way home. The washer and dryer notify you when they’re done. This home doesn’t just have smart features, it has routines that make your day easier. The main level is built around a custom ledgerstone fireplace wall and a kitchen with granite counters, glass backsplash, and smart appliances. The hidden door is a detail that lands every time it opens. Blurring the line between indoor & outdoor living, the eating area opens onto a covered composite deck with heater and projection screen. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite presents dual feature walls, smart fireplace, lounge with built-in vanity, custom enclosed walk-in closet, and spa-like ensuite with one-piece bidet toilet. 3 more large bedrooms (2 with walk-in closets), and a smart laundry room complete the level. The backyard is an outdoor living space built for entertaining in true Alberni fashion, with a 770 sqft stamped concrete patio, outdoor kitchen, and firepit. There’s room for all the gardening and outdoor gear in the insulated shed with water, power, and smart heating, plus additional parking, gated laneway access, water features, LED lighting, and built-in irrigation for the lawn. Built in 2017, this home offers the efficiency advantages of modern construction, without unknown updates, uncertainty, or varying quality and compromises that often come with older properties. Situated in a peaceful neighbourhood, you’re close to all the amenities, trails, and outdoor lifestyle Alberni is famous for, yet far enough from the noise to unwind. This one-of-a-kind meticulously maintained home is move-in ready, and is best experienced in person to appreciate the full extent of what it offers.
